New Jersey’s Outpatient Detox - Access Addiction Treatment from Home

The Center for Network Therapy (CNT) provides outpatient addiction treatment in New Jersey, including outpatient drug detox and outpatient alcohol detox. CNT was the first addiction treatment program to offer outpatient detox in 2013, and has helped thousands of New Jersey residents overcome alcohol dependence and drug dependence while living with their families and with minimal disruption to their daily lives. CNT provides addiction treatment in NJ for alcohol dependence, opiate dependence, benzo dependence and anesthetic dependence and stimulant dependence. The Outpatient Detox model helps ensure that people suffering from addiction do not have to choose between getting the treatment they need, and caring for their family, keeping up with work, or continuing with academic commitments.

CNT’s Medical Director, Dr. Indra Cidambi, was the first to innovate the Outpatient Detox model in order to increase treatment access for people suffering from addiction and increase treatment effectiveness by integrating the home environment into treatment from the outset. She has led inpatient chemical dependency programs in New Jersey previously, but she realized that patients find it hard to seamlessly integrate back into their daily life after inpatient treatment (which may lead to relapse after treatment) and they also do not engage optimally in treatment in an inpatient setting, as they are constantly worried about how their family is coping in their absence.

Whether the patient is a homemaker, a single parent, a student, a nurse, a teacher, a cop, a lawyer, a physician, a business person, or other professional, it is difficult to take “forced” time off in order to access addiction treatment. Consequently, many people suffering from addiction choose to postpone treatment to a more “convenient” time, which leads them deeper into addiction and further complicates their lives. Also, inpatient addiction treatment can be anxiety provoking, as patients are almost always stressed about how their family is coping during their absence, resulting in less-than-optimal treatment participation.

While Outpatient Detox is usually the the most acute phase of addiction treatment, CNT also offers step-down levels of care such as Partial Care and IOP programs at all 3 of our New Jersey locations – Middlesex, West Orange, and Freehold. We also accept direct admits to Partial Care and IOP programs.

Relief Within an Hour from Alcohol Withdrawal, Opiate Withdrawal, Benzo Withdrawal, Anesthetic Withdrawal & Stimulant Withdrawal

CNT’s Outpatient Detox is structured to provide immediate relief from alcohol withdrawal, opiate withdrawal, benzo withdrawal, stimulant withdrawal and anesthetic withdrawal. The patient always meets with the nurse first in order to receive meds to address withdrawal symptoms as quickly as possible. CNT stocks detoxification meds such as Buprenorphine, Suboxone, Subutex, Clonidine, Ativan, Librium, Valium, etc. and administers it immediately after evaluation, alleviating withdrawal symptoms instantly. We are open 7-days a week, and we can provide immediate relief from alcohol withdrawal, opiate withdrawal, benzo withdrawal, stimulant withdrawal & anesthetic withdrawal if the patient comes in before noon.

Access to immediate withdrawal relief is key to capturing the window of opportunity when the person suffering from addiction is willing to enter treatment, Withdrawal from opiates, alcohol, benzos or anaesthetics is usually excruciating, and alcohol withdrawal and benzo withdrawal bring the additional risk of seizures, or even stroke. Inability to find immediate relief from withdrawal can lead the person suffering from addiction back to his/her substance of choice, often at higher doses in order to find relief, increasing risk of overdose.

Low, or No Cost Treatment – In-Network with Private Health Insurance

CNT has been credentialed by most private health insurance providers and Medicaid to provide substance use disorder treatment. Most health insurance plans cover addiction treatment in full, reducing the cost of treatment to zero for patients. When deductibles and co-pays apply, they are the lowest possible, as CNT is in-network (contracted to provide addiction services) with most major health insurance providers and CNT accepts EPO, HMO and PPO plans – Aetna, Anthem Health, Cigna, Empire Health, Horizon BCBS, MagnaCare, Optum, Oscar, Oxford, United HealthCare, QualCare and others. CNT is also licensed to provide all levels of care for treating addiction by the state of New Jersey.

Outpatient Detox – Most Effective Alcohol Rehab and Drug Rehab in New Jersey

New Jersey residents suffering from addiction and needing alcohol detox, benzo detox, opiate detox, stimulant detox or anesthetic detox, now have a more effective and safe alternative to inpatient detoxification: Outpatient Detox. CNT provides Outpatient Detox from all substances and has been recognized by ASAM for proving this level of care to be safe and effective.

Outpatient Detox aligns with the disease model of addiction in that it treats addiction on an outpatient basis like other chronic diseases such as diabetes and hypertension. Treating addiction on an outpatient basis reduces stigma associated with the disease. Inpatient addiction treatment increases stigma, as it sends the signal that addiction is a behavioral problem or a moral issue that needs “isolation” and “correction” in a restrictive environment.

CNT has been providing Outpatient Detox since 2013 and Outpatient Detox delivers better results relative to Inpatient Detox. Firstly, health insurance companies authorize longer length of stay in Outpatient Detox, which allows smoother titration of medications as per individual needs, vastly increasing patient comfort. Also, when patients are in the Outpatient Detox level of care, they go home at the end of each day and they can put into practice coping skills and relapse prevention techniques learnt in treatment. They are able to come back the next day and discuss what worked and what did not work and make adjustments. Als, in our view, the advent of myriad medications, such as Keppra, Naltrexone, Suboxone, etc. has helped mitigate risk from continued use and made Inpatient Detoxification redundant.

Boutique-Style, Personalized Treatment for the Discerning in New Jersey

CNT provides detoxification in an intimate setting with less than two dozen individuals at a time, relative to inpatient facilities that usually treat over 100 individuals simultaneously. Small groups at CNT allows for personalized treatment and also fosters connections. Medication protocols can be individualized to fit each individual’s personal needs and personal issues addressed in therapy.

At CNT, we believe customized treatment delivers better outcomes as each individual’s recovery is a unique journey and they should be enabled to achieve recovery in ways that fit their circumstances. This is possible only in a small, boutique-like setting where individuality can flourish. If you prefer class over mass, CNT is the place for you!

Stories of Recovery

CNT is my first detox/PHP treatment. My experience here has been very pleasant thus far. The environment is structured, yet relaxed. Everyone participates as they become comfortable to share their stories, as they are very personal. CNT offered free walk-in support for Thanksgiving, which can keep patients away from trigger situations.

My experience here has been wonderful. I’ve learned a lot and got to open up and figure myself out. i’ve learnt how to act in certain situations, and keep myself calm when I am super stressed out. I like it here at the cnter, everyone is welcoming, everyone is really helpful and there for you whenever you’re upset, mad or just need someone to talk to.

- SP

I would like to thank CNT for all they have one for my son. The program’s outpatient approach, I believe, has more success because patients are taught in a more stress free setting, instead of 24-hour confinement. This also allows more family involvement, which helps in recovery. CNT’s program should be a model for other facilities to consider in a patient’s recovery process.

CNT saved my life. The staff and therapists cared for me as a person not just an addict. Helped me believe in the woman I could become. Helped me get through all of my emotional and physical issues I was dealing with at that time and continuous support through my journey.

- Brandy B

CNT has been very helpful in the recovery of my husband. The therapists and counselors are wonderful, loving and compassionate. The experience has been eye-opening and CNT has been very helpful. Comfortable and caring atmosphere.

- Julianne S

Our (family) meetings were informative and it felt as if there was genuine concern for my daughter and family. I think my daughter made the right choice to come to CNT.
